The Chestnuts, HAYWARDS HEATH, RH16 2AS

A residential road that runs between Pickersgreen Cross and Smallsgreen Cross roughly following the route of the ancient Lindfield to Cuckfield road that once ran across West Common. By the 1875 OS map it was called Station Road with a small terrace called Albert Cottages already built on the southern side towards the middle. By the 1910 edition the road had been renamed and north western end developed with building completed on both sides by the end of the 1930s.

Originally a Victorian house called Summer Hill that was acquired in 1939 by the owners of Belvedere School located in Bolnore Road Haywards Heath that had been founded in 1888. In 1973 it merged with Tavistock Hall, then based in Heathfield East Sussex, but originally founded in the Devon town. Both were originally boys preparatory boarding schools but became co-educational in the early 1980s. The school governors voted for closure in 2011 due to dwindling numbers, however, the parents mobilised to save it and succeeded after which interest and numbers have grown again. The white building to the right is the former lodge whilst the road to the south of the school is small residential estate built on former grounds.
